Trees dring up

[Buckrub4]

Hi! Im new to the trader and I was just curious how everyones season was going. I live in Northern Pa and my trees seemed to have dried up about a week ago:confused: I Tapped around March 5th and reamed the holes around the20th. I have out 225 taps and I have gathered less than 100 gallons in the last week. I talked to neighboring sugar houses and they say their trees are still going strong. anyone else having this problem?

It may be the end of the season.

I'm from St.Marys,Pa. in northwest pa. I tapped on march 6th also,up until last week I collected 3700 gal. of sap on 400 taps. My trees dried up last Thurs.I have talked to some other producers in Potter Co. who hav e told me the same.:cry:

Last tuesday was the last run I got, all done for the year. I'd say the season ended about a week early for me, compared to the historical average.

The season in this part of MA was one week shorter than last as well. Combine that with lower sugar% and lower overall volume... I was hoping for better. There's always next year.

I have 600 taps. Almost half of them were tapped on feb 6th. I just came in from checking tanks and buckets and everytihng is running strong. Many buckets are half full since 1:00 this afternoon. I should have gathered tonight because at the rate everything is running most buckets will be running over by morning. This will be the last. I will take what this warmup gives for sap and be done for the season.

Almost finished for year - maybe two more boils. Good year all light syrup so far - 500 taps - 58 gallons made - sweetness highest ever

Its good to hear someone had a good year. every thing i made was on the dark side. talked to other producers and theirs was the same all dark very little light. sap % was very low for me this year with an average of around 1.6%. my trees started running good again yesterday, Sugar is low but will take what I can get.
